The inspiration for making a Black IPA (or should we say "India Black Ale"?) has been over a year in the making. As soon as we wrapped up the brewing of the Stone 10th Anniversary IPA and the Black IPA concept was born. This was a challenging brew to formulate and achieve what we considered the ideal flavor balance of intense up-front hops with balanced roasted malt flavors a deep rich flavor and a hearty bitterness.
